Originally devised as a feature film, The Ones Who Live was eventually stretched into a miniseries, which keeps it in line with all the other Walking Dead spinoffs that AMC has produced in recent years. However, since Rick had been absent from the series for so long, there was a lot of excitement for Andrew Lincoln's return to the role that anchored the franchise for years, and there was instantly more gravitas forThe Ones Who Live. Though it is intended to only last for one season, there's a big possibility that The Ones Who Live could return for season 2.

"I mean the plan was to keep it limited. Not necessarily never to see those characters again, but to keep it limited. But I always say, you never know.
"There's so many... I've been very careful to not say, 'Oh, that'll never happen,' because it does. So you know, there are possibilities.

The Ones Who Live Season 2 Story
What Could Happen In Season 2?
At this juncture, it is difficult to nail down exactly what might happen if The Ones Who Live is renewed for another season because season 1's ending was somewhat conclusive.

However, with zombies still a threat (as well as various human factions), The Walking Dead doesn't ever actually have to end.
